PART III LINE 4A
HEALTHY LIVING. THE SUMMIT AREA YMCA IS A LEADING VOICE ON HEALTH AND WELL-BEING. WITH A MISSION CENTERED ON BALANCE, THE Y BRINGS FAMILIES CLOSER TOGETHER, ENCOURAGES GOOD HEALTH AND FOSTERS CONNECTIONS THROUGH FITNESS, SPORTS, FUN AND SHARED INTERESTS. AS A RESULT, THOUSANDS OF YOUTH, ADULTS AND FAMILIES ARE RECEIVING THE SUPPORT, GUIDANCE AND RESOURCES NEEDED TO ACHIEVE GREATER HEALTH AND WELL-BEING FOR THEIR SPIRIT, MIND AND BODY. KELLY, WHO HAS BEEN A BERKELEY HEIGHTS YMCA MEMBER FOR 2 YEARS, IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF THE KIND OF SUPPORT THE Y PROVIDES TO THOSE WHO SEEK TO IMPROVE THEIR HEALTH IN SPIRIT, MIND, AND BODY. WHEN I WEIGHED 277 LBS ON NEW YEARS DAY IN 2013, I RESOLVED TO CHANGE MY LIFE AND COMMITTED TO A PROGRAM OF EXERCISE AND DIET A FEW DAYS LATER I WALKED IN TO THE BERKELEY HEIGHTS YMCA. I HAD GAINED THE BULK OF MY WEIGHT AFTER MY SECOND PREGNANCY AND JUST COULD NOT TAKE IT OFF. WHILE I FELT TIRED AND UNCOMFORTABLE ALL THE TIME, WHAT WAS MOST UPSETTING WAS THAT I COULD NOT DO THINGS WITH AND FOR MY TWO CHILDREN AGES 5 AND 2. I CHOSE THE Y BECAUSE IT WELCOMED ME AND PARTNERED WITH ME ON MY JOURNEY. I HAD A PLACE TO BRING MY YOUNG CHILDREN WHILE I WORKED OUT (CHILDCARE OR ENRICHMENT CLASSES). THE INSTRUCTORS WERE SUPPORTIVE THEY CHECKED IN WITH ME REGULARLY AND REASSURED ME ON MY PROGRESS AND HELPED ME KEEP PERSPECTIVE ON LOSING THE WEIGHT IN SMALL 10 LB INCREMENTS. I LOVED THE CLASSES, ESPECIALLY BODY PUMP, WHICH HAS HELPED TONE MY BODY. 9 MONTHS LATER AND 90 LBS LIGHTER, IN ADDITION TO HAVING MORE ENERGY AND FEELING HAPPIER, I MAKE HEALTHIER NUTRITION CHOICES WHICH HAVE HAD A REALLY POSITIVE IMPACT ON MY KIDS. MORE THAN ANYTHING, IT IS NOW SO MUCH FUN TO BUY NEW CLOTHES! THE Y IS ALSO ENCOURAGING YOUNG PEOPLE TO DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN HEALTHY EXERCISE AND NUTRITION HABITS THROUGH THE FREE, INNOVATIVE 7TH GRADE INITIATIVE PROGRAM. STARTED IN 2008, TO HELP TEENS SUCCESSFULLY NAVIGATE A PIVOTAL AND TRANSITIONAL TIME IN THEIR LIVES, THE PROGRAM NOW SERVES 250 KIDS WITH A FREE MEMBERSHIP, PERSONALIZED DEMOS FOR WORKING OUT, AND FUN ACTIVITIES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR THEM TO SOCIALIZE WITH PEERS IN A SAFE, SUPERVISED AND CONVENIENTLY LOCATED ENVIRONMENT. THE STAFF AT THE Y ARE DEDICATED TO HELPING THESE TEENS, WHO ARE AT A CROSSROADS IN THEIR DEVELOPMENT, LEARN TO MAKE HEALTHY CHOICES. THE Y COMMITMENT TO IMPROVING HEALTH IN BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT IS ALSO SEEN IN THE EXPERIENCES OF ROSE AND JACOB, SUMMIT YMCA FAMILY MEMBERS. ROSE SPEAKS OF BURSTING WITH PRIDE AS SHE SEES THE Y HELP DEVELOP GRIT AND COMMITMENT IN HER ADOLESCENT SON. JACOB, HER THIRTEEN YEAR OLD, TALKS ABOUT GETTING HEALTHY AND FEELING MORE SELF-CONFIDENT. I WEIGHED 197 LBS AT MY 13 YEAR OLD ANNUAL CHECKUP. I KNEW THAT WAS TOTALLY RIDICULOUS. SO, SINCE WE HAD A FAMILY MEMBERSHIP TO THE SUMMIT YMCA, I DECIDED TO START WORKING OUT THERE. IT WAS REALLY HARD WORK AND IT WAS NOT EASY, BUT I WENT EVERY DAY AND WALKED/RAN ON THE TREADMILL FOR AN HOUR. I AM SO HAPPY THAT I LOST 38 LBS OVER THE SUMMER! WHEN I WALKED INTO LCJSMS ON THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL AND PEOPLE COMMENTED ON HOW DIFFERENT I LOOKED, I FELT PROUD. I STILL GO TO THE Y EVERY DAY, BECAUSE I FEEL BETTER AND HAVE SO MUCH MORE ENERGY WHEN I DO EXERCISE. IF I DID NOT GO TO THE Y, I WOULD BE PLAYING VIDEO GAMES AT HOME AND EATING SNACKS. I LIKE TO GO TO THE Y FOR MANY REASONS: I FEEL COMFORTABLE, IT IS EASY TO GET TO FROM THE MIDDLE SCHOOL, BUT THE BEST PART IS WATCHING THE NUMBERS GO DOWN ON THE SCALE THAT IS THE REWARD. JACOB, MIDDLE SCHOOLER AND SUMMIT YMCA MEMBER, AGE 13 JACOB WAS SELF-CONSCIOUS ABOUT HIS WEIGHT AND SO WE BOTH DECIDED TO START WORKING OUT AT THE SUMMIT YMCA AND EAT MORE HEALTHY. THERES NO MAGIC TO IT, BUT THE DAILY EXERCISE AND MANY HOURS OF HARD WORK AT THE GYM REALLY HELPED US BOTH LOSE THE WEIGHT. WE EACH LOST CLOSE TO 40 LBS! HE SHOWED GRIT AND DETERMINATION AND COMMITMENT. THE Y HELPED BRING THAT OUT IN HIM BY GIVING HIM THE TOOLS (MACHINES AND WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT) TO GET HEALTHIER. HIS SELF-CONFIDENCE AND SELF-ESTEEM ARE GROWING. IT MAKES ME BURST WITH PRIDE. IF HE COULD DO IT, OTHER KIDS AND ADULTS COULD DO IT TOO. THE Y HAS CERTAINLY TRANSFORMED HIS LIFE. ROSEMARY, MOTHER AND SUMMIT YMCA MEMBER. THE SUMMIT AREA YMCA CONTINUES TO DEMONSTRATE ITS COMMITMENT TO ENSURE ALL PEOPLE FIND COMMUNITY AND CONNECTEDNESS, ESPECIALLY THOSE FAMILIES SEPARATED WHILE DEFENDING OUR FREEDOMS. OUR YMCA PARTICIPATES IN THE YMCA MILITARY OUTREACH PROGRAM, OFFERING FREE MEMBERSHIPS TO 8 FAMILIES AND 28 ADULTS (ACTIVE DUTY PERSONNEL) AND THEIR FAMILIES, GIVING THEM A PLACE TO COME TO RELIEVE STRESS, MAKE FRIENDS, AND BECOME HEALTHIER.
PART III LINE 4B
YOUTH DEVELOPMENT - CHILD CARE. WE BELIEVE THAT ALL KIDS DESERVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCOVER WHO THEY ARE AND WHAT THEY CAN ACHIEVE. IN ADDITION, WE BELIEVE THAT KIDS NEED A SAFE, NURTURING ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH TO LEARN, GROW AND DEVELOP SOCIAL SKILLS AND OUR CHILD CARE PROGRAMS, WHICH CARE FOR 600 CHILDREN AGES SIX WEEKS TO 12 YEARS EVERY DAY, PROVIDE JUST SUCH AN ENVIRONMENT. IN 2013, THE Y PROVIDED $277,335 IN DIRECT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, ENABLING PARENTS TO GO TO WORK SECURE THAT THEIR CHILD (INFANTS, TODDLERS, PRE-SCHOOL AND ELEMENTARY AGE SCHOOL CHILDREN) WERE BEING NURTURED, DEVELOPED AND WELL CARED FOR. MANY OF THE CHILDREN IN OUR CHILD CARE PROGRAMS, PARTICULARLY AT THE LEARNING CIRCLE YMCA, WHICH IS A FULL-TIME CHILD CARE CENTER CARING FOR CHILDREN FROM SIX WEEKS TO SIX YEARS OLD, COME FROM SINGLE-PARENT HOUSEHOLDS, AND MANY LIVE AT THE POVERTY LEVEL. HERE IS MELISAS STORY: AS A SINGLE MOTHER, I HAVE A BUSY LIFE TAKING CARE OF MY YOUNG SON AND MY MOTHER BUT THE Y SUPPORT OF OUR FAMILY MAKES IT ALL POSSIBLE. FOR THE PAST YEAR, MY SON HAS BEEN GOING TO SCHOOL AT THE LEARNING CIRCLE YMCA. IN THE BEGINNING HE WAS SO SHY BECAUSE HE ONLY SPOKE SPANISH AND IT WAS HARD FOR HIM TO RELATE TO THE OTHER CHILDREN. THROUGH THE TEACHERS CARING AND UNDERSTANDING APPROACH, THEY CONNECTED WITH HIM TO BUILD HIS CONFIDENCE. NOW HE SPEAKS ENGLISH SO WELL THAT I AM LEARNING FROM HIM! HE HAS GROWN ACADEMICALLY AND SOCIALLY. IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE WE RECEIVED THROUGH THE Y, HE WOULD NOT HAVE A CHANCE TO LEARN AND GROW AT SUCH A WONDERFUL SCHOOL. WITH THE Y SUPPORT, I AM ABLE TO WORK TO SUPPORT MY FAMILY AND PURSUE MY EDUCATION TO ACHIEVE MY DREAM OF BECOMING A CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST. THE LEARNING CIRCLE YMCA IS A PLACE WHERE MY SON FEELS SAFE AND HAPPY IT IS A SECOND HOME TO HIM AND TO ME. - MELISA, THE LEARNING CIRCLE
PART III LINE 4C
YOUTH DEVELOPMENT - DAY CAMP. THE SUMMIT AREA YMCA DAY CAMPS ARE SAFE, EXCITING PLACES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE TO EXPLORE THE OUTDOORS, BUILD SELF-ESTEEM, DEVELOP INTERPERSONAL SKILLS AND MAKE LASTING FRIENDSHIPS AND MEMORIES. IN 2013, WE PROVIDED $33,568 IN DIRECT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO SOME OF THE 540 CAMPERS ENROLLED, TO ENSURE THEY HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCES AS OTHER KIDS AND THAT THEY TOO, BENEFITTED FROM THE NURTURING DEVELOPMENT THAT HAPPENS EVERY DAY IN Y CAMP.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY PROGRAMS. IN ADDITION TO HEALTHY LIVING PROGRAMS, CHILD CARE AND CAMP, THE Y SERVES THE COMMUNITY IN A VARIETY OF WAYS, MOST IMPORTANTLY THROUGH THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS, INCLUDING THE ACHIEVERS PROGRAM, WHICH PRINCIPALLY PROVIDE FREE OR LOW COST EDUCATIONAL AND CAREER SUPPORT TO MINORITY TEENS AND THEIR FAMILIES. GEORGE, A CANCER SURVIVOR FOUND HOPE AND COMMUNITY IN HIS SMALL CANCER-RECOVERY GROUP AT THE Y. HERE IS HIS STORY. AT AGE 66, I UNDERWENT THE CYBERKNIFE OPERATION WHEN I LEARNED I HAD PROSTRATE CANCER. I WAS SURPRISED AT THE DIAGNOSIS. MY DAUGHTER ENCOURAGED ME TO INVESTIGATE THE LIVESTRONG AT THE YMCA PROGRAM AND MY FOLLOWING HER ADVICE PAID AMAZING DIVIDENDS! FROM THE MOMENT THAT I WALKED INTO THE BERKELEY HEIGHTS YCMA AND WAS WARMLY WELCOMED BY THE STAFF, THROUGH THE DURATION OF THE FREE 12-WEEK PROGRAM, I WAS TREATED WITH RESPECT AND UNDERSTANDING. THOSE HELPING ME WERE ESPECIALLY TRAINED IN CANCER RECOVERY CARE AND ENCOURAGED AND ADVISED ME HOW TO BECOME MORE HEALTHY IN BODY AND MIND, I AM A TESTAMENT TO THE SUCCESS OF THE PROGRAM. MY HEART RATE HAS GONE DOWN BY ALMOST 20%, I CAN NOW LEG PRESS 200 LBS MORE THAN ON MY FIRST DAY, AND MY FITNESS ON THE WALK TEST INCREASED BY 50% (FROM 16 TO 24 LAPS). IN JUST 3 MONTHS, I AM STRONGER, MORE CHEERFUL, MORE HEALTHY. IN 2013, THE SUMMIT AREA YMCA PROVIDED $1.2 MILLION IN DIRECT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND BOTH DIRECT AND INDIRECT PROGRAM SUBSIDIES.
